Fits a Poisson GAM model y ~ s(x) (y ~ x if x is non-numeric) with the numeric response y and the numeric, character or factor predictor x using mgcv::gam() and returns the R-squared of the observations against the predictions (see score_r2()).
Supports cross-validation via the arguments arguments cv_training_fraction (numeric between 0 and 1) and cv_iterations (integer between 1 and n) introduced via ellipsis (...). See preference_order() for further details.
